Offensive execution skills can help develop better barrel control, barrel awareness, barrel manipulation, and pitch-tracking ability. Several of these drills can also help shorten the swing, making them especially valuable when facing elite velocity or implementing an effective two-strike approach. Elite hitters don’t just train their swing, they train... show more

The “how’s” and “Why’s” behind the High Tee Drill. This critical hitting drill should be a staple part of your Tee routine. It is also used to break hitters of “barrel dumping” which will most often result in caught pop-ups or completely swinging and missing against elite velocity/spin at top of the zone. #DoSimpleBetter Next Level Baseball Dirt Bro Baseball Taber Mongero

Placing the bat on the neck or shoulder, allowing a hitter to know where their barrel is, can be a good unlock for some hitters. Shortening the swing arc can also help produce more consistent, hard contact. Coach Gary Ward of Oklahoma State fame.

The Problem w/ extension drills !!! Too many hitters try to “muscle” the swing. They squeeze the bat, fight the barrel, and kill all the natural whip that creates real power. The best hitters don’t force the barrel — they release it. Loose hands allow the barrel to move freely and naturally through the zone. It doesn’t mean lazy or sloppy. It means relaxed enough to let your body’s sequence — not tension — deliver the barrel. Think: smooth → quick → explosive. When your hands are loose, your forearms and wrists stay live. That’s where the “Power V” starts to form — the natural extension of your hands and barrel after contact. This in many other Hiting tips can be found. In the Summers Method App

Good clip by Trey Hannam. Some hitters must be taught to deliver the barrel, release the barrel because their barrel stays back behind their knob too long.

Barrel control with one hand drills are the best to really feel your swing and direction…. Can’t wait to see the comments about the wrist turning over… they have too, it’s a reason why I see so many young kids doing the chicken wing when they swing, whip the barrel and keep good direction! This 11 year old is a problem 🔥

Sal Stewart is one of three hitters in MLB in the 85th percentile or better in K%, BB% and Barrel %. The other two? Yordan Alvarez and Vladdy 🤯 Mike Lowell highlights the Cincinnati Reds rookie's swing approach fueling a hot start at the plate.

THE COMPLETE INFIELDER …. A DIRT BRO… HAS IT ALL… Elite feet, elite hands, elite eyes (seeing the ball at high speeds), elite judgement (reading hops/angles), efficient transition from field to throw, ability to repeat mechanics, short arm stroke, ability to throw from all arm angles … on the run. Various footwork patterns… Elite Range and timing…. Soft hands… The ability to make plays one handed or two handed. Have a strong arm (when needed) and a very accurate arm… ALWAYS. On top of all this, you must have an elite internal clock. Above average baseball IQ and situational awareness. And It’s critical that all the above be taught and trained regularly. Hope to see you at Dirt Bro Camp This Summer. First camp in two weeks at UNCW. *** BELOW IS AN EXAMPLE VIDEO OF WAYS OF IMPROVING INFIELDER’S HANDS.

The University of Missouri led by Dennis Gates has become one of the most progressive programs in the NCAA. Their secret? They are committed to evidence-based coaching and are guided by the Constraints-Led Approach (CLA) This game is an effective way for coaches to help their teams improve their finishing ability in live action. By practicing against live defense and in game-like scenarios, players can develop the necessary skills and adaptability to perform better in actual games. Implementing this drill, or similar ones that focus on live action and adaptation, could be a valuable addition to a team’s practice routine.

Jarred Kelenic talking hitting. Precision over muscling up & trying to swing so hard. Strike the ball consistently with good barrel accuracy & good things will happen. Try & swing too hard & you will be inconsistent. You want high bat speed & exit velocity for sure. But that comes from the weight room, proper nutrition, & a bat speed plan. Once you do that & have the elite engine. You just try to strike it cleanly! Hitters University

Elite Infielders do these things at a high level: 1. They get to the baseball as quickly and under control as possible. 2. Know and understand attack angles 0 wasted stutter steps or eyewash steps 3. The ability to READ THE HOP and Read a hitters swing 4. Body/Arm Control

🚨 Austin Riley Tee Drills • Keep a flat swing • High Tee • Tee deep in the zone to allow the barrel to get on plane early ⭐️ Take the time to understand your swing. The Tee is one of the most powerful tools you can use to learn your swing

Stop dumping the barrel!! Big cue here to make sure we aren’t doing this in our swing. When we start our move, the first move should be with the back hip and knob to set our direction to the ball. If you don’t feel this and instead feel your back elbow going first—getting in front of your hands—you’re dumping the barrel and losing control of your ability to make consistent contact. #softball #softballtraining #hitting #barreldump

Elite hands don’t happen by chance. And no matter your starting point, there is always a room for improvement. Find ways to challenge your hand tempo and deflect exchange confidence/speed. Rhythm and repeatability are key elements to each drill. Stay calm, relaxed, & free and easy. When you combine elite, hands, with elite feet, elite arm, and elite internal clock or “instincts,” you become an elite defender who can dominate. Here are some various 3 ball and 2 ball drills that Dirt Bro Taber Mongero current Director of Player Development at UNCW Baseball did as a 4 year starting D1 SS. Some of these drills were a part of his daily “hands routine” used before every practice or game. #DoingDirtWork Dirt Bro Diamond Training Next Level Baseball

Hitters chase power by flying open. But that’s why they miss. Chest opens early → Barrel gets stuck → You cut across the ball. Good hitters don’t spin. They sequence. Barrel behind the turn. Chest through.
